根因分析

粘贴窗户不能防止碎裂;当玻璃破碎时会产生更大、更危险的碎片,而且密封窗户可能导致压力差,在风暴经过时吹毁结构。

English

Taping windows does not prevent shattering; it creates larger, more dangerous shards when the glass breaks, and sealing windows can cause pressure differentials that blow out the structure when the storm passes.

解决方案

  1. 在飓风季节之前安装抗冲击窗户或永久性风暴百叶窗。这是抵御风载碎片的唯一可靠保护。
  2. 如果没有百叶窗,用5/8英寸胶合板裁切好,用螺钉固定在窗框上,封住窗户。
  3. 风暴期间,待在远离窗户和玻璃门的内室。不要在风暴期间打开窗户或门。

无效尝试

常见但无效的做法:

  1. Using duct tape in an X pattern on all windows 95% 失败

    Duct tape does not strengthen glass; it only holds shards together, creating larger projectiles when the window breaks

  2. Closing all windows tightly to prevent wind from entering 85% 失败

    Sealed windows create a pressure differential when the storm passes, causing the roof to lift off and windows to blow outward

  3. Leaving one window slightly open to equalize pressure 90% 失败

    This is a myth; the pressure differential is not significant enough to matter, and the open window allows wind and rain to enter
